Hector bed bug remedy will get rid of bed bugs once and for all without disturbing your normal rhythm of life. An effective remedy for parasites

Advantages and disadvantages

The remedy for bedbugs Hector, like any drug with a similar effect, has a number of advantages and disadvantages that set it apart from its competitors. The main advantages of the drug are:

Safety and low toxicity. The product poses a threat only if it enters the body of a person or pet. Does not contain dangerous pesticides. Causes short-term redness upon contact with exposed skin.
The absence of a sharp unpleasant odor, which is what most anti-bedbug products are famous for. After treating the room, no additional ventilation is required.
It is not addictive, which is why its effectiveness increases several times.
Affordable price, the product is not in short supply. Purchased at a pharmacy or hardware store.

Disadvantages include:

To kill bedbugs, direct contact of the parasites with the powder is required. To get rid of a large population, you will need to sprinkle the powder in places where bedbugs accumulate: in mattresses, bedding, behind baseboards, in cracks, window and door openings.
Does not destroy eggs and larvae of bedbugs, which will require repeated treatment after 5-7 days. It is necessary until the larvae develop into adults and lay new eggs.
A draft poses a danger to the drug: a blow of wind can disperse the active ingredients throughout the apartment before they come into contact with parasites. Before treating the apartment, it is necessary to tightly close the windows and doors or pour the product into the cracks in the floor and walls.

What is the difference between Hector in the black and yellow bottle?

The active ingredients of these drugs have similar names, but have completely different physical and chemical properties, which directly affects their effectiveness in the fight against bed bugs and cockroaches. Bed bugs feel contact with diatomaceous earth powder (yellow Hector), as it causes mechanical damage to them. Therefore, if a bug survives contact with diatomaceous earth, it will try to avoid contact with it again.

Hydrophilic silicon dioxide (Hector in a black bottle) works excellently on blood-sucking insects, as they feed exclusively on blood. However, it is not as effective against cockroaches. This is due to the fact that a cockroach, having reached a water source, can restore the water balance of its body, unlike a bug.

If you are fighting cockroaches, it is better to use Hector in a red bottle

. If you are fighting bedbugs, then Hector in a black bottle will be most effective

It’s easy to buy Hector against bedbugs in our online store. We can provide professional advice on this product. Delivery of the order is possible throughout the country, with payment upon receipt. You can study reviews of the bedbug repellent in the “Reviews” tab. Instructions for use are presented in the product photo.

Composition and principle of action

The main active ingredient in Hector against bedbugs is silicon dioxide. In contact with the body of the parasite, the chemical element is quickly absorbed by the body and immediately destroys the bug from the inside. The insect will not have time to lay eggs or move to a safe place.

The insecticide is not addictive, which increases its effectiveness. The average duration of the parasite after contact with the active substances of Hector is 22-24 hours.

Important! Silicon dioxide is used in medicines and some foods, so it does not pose a danger to the human body. But this does not mean that you should neglect personal protective equipment.

Hector powder destroys bedbugs in the following way: penetrating the insect’s body, it absorbs all the moisture. Due to static electricity, the parasite's shell is destroyed, which is why the bug loses its ability to move and soon dies from dehydration.

Bedbugs, unlike flies and cockroaches, are difficult to attract by the product in powder form. For the contract to take place, it is better to leave Hector near the nests of parasites and in places of their possible migrations. After 5-7 days, repeated treatment will be required to destroy the eggs and larvae of bedbugs.

More about the principle of operation

The product exhibits hydrophilic properties.
This means its ability to combine with water molecules. Upon contact with the chitinous coverings of insects, all moisture is lost from the body of the pests.

This is due to the fact that 1 molecule of the product can absorb up to 18 molecules of water. The powder also works on adults and larvae, but it is mostly used to destroy eggs.

If you treat areas where there may be bedbug eggs, the offspring of the pests will soon die. The protective shells will dry out, resulting in the death of the embryos. In addition, if it was not possible to treat all areas with powder, the adult individuals will carry particles of the substance into the nest. The powder lingers on the chitinous covers if the insect crawls over the poison.

Distinctive features of Gektor

It can also be used to kill adult individuals. However, such insects have the ability to quickly restore the supply of moisture in the body. To do this they use human blood. If you rely only on Hector for bedbugs, its use will not justify itself. Pests will continue to exist and multiply. As a result, the colony will increase in size.

Larvae die faster from this type of powder. They cannot yet suck out a lot of blood from the victim, which does not allow them to quickly replenish fluid losses. However, even direct contact with the poison (for example, if a large amount of the product gets on the shell) will gradually kill the adult, because as it moves from the shelter towards the victim, new particles of the substance are retained on the insect’s body.

It is important to keep the medicine closed. Contact with humid air will cause the silicon dioxide to lose its properties.

As a result, the substance will cease to perform its functions. You can purchase the powder in soft containers, multilayer bags, laminated bags with valves. The volume of packaging depends on the purpose of use of the product. For example, in domestic conditions it is better to use Gektor against bed bugs in packages of 100-300 g. For the treatment of industrial facilities, the option of purchasing the drug in a volume of up to 1500 g is considered.

Description and composition

Gektor appeared on the market at the end of 2021 and many buyers have already been able to appreciate it, as evidenced by positive reviews. The active component of the drug is finely dispersed hydrophilic silicon dioxide. This substance is chemically neutral, which makes it safe for human health and pets.

This component is also used for medical purposes. It is used as an absorbent when it is necessary to cleanse the digestive tract of toxins. Silicon dioxide is also used in the food industry as an additive E551. It is included in creams, pastes and thickeners.

Silica

How to use the product correctly?

Detailed instructions for use are indicated on the packaging. Due to the fact that the product has recently appeared on the market, the likelihood of purchasing a fake is extremely low. Therefore, follow the instructions written on the packaging strictly to get the maximum effect and protect yourself and your loved ones.

The best option is to distribute the product in places where parasites are most concentrated. Bedbugs prefer to lay eggs and build nests in mattresses, bed and sofa frames, behind baseboards, and in ventilation holes. Carefully check dark places with a constant air temperature - parasites can move there in case of danger.

Bedbugs, unlike cockroaches, feed exclusively on human blood, so it is difficult to attract them with powder. For the product to work, it must enter the body of the parasites through direct contact. This can best be achieved by spreading the powder over the detected nests and in places where bedbugs are likely to accumulate.

Attention! Pour some of the powder into the ventilation hole, on the top of the outlet, on wall shelves. Bed bugs can hide there.

How safe is Hector for humans and their pets?

The remedy against bedbugs Hector belongs to the fourth class of toxicity and, when used correctly, is not capable of harming the health of humans and pets.

Important! It is prohibited to use Hector in the presence of allergy sufferers, pregnant women and children.

A small amount of the product may enter the human body during room treatment. When it penetrates the gastrointestinal tract, it is not absorbed and is quickly eliminated, so its danger is negligible.

The drug should be kept away from small children, who may mistakenly inhale or swallow some of the toxic substances.

Hector's main active ingredient, silicon dioxide, is found in everyday life. It is found in toothpaste, milk powder, chips/crackers, and as an adsorbent medicine. A product that quickly and effectively destroys parasites is not capable of causing harm to humans and large animals.

Instructions for use and composition

Unlike other remedies, Hector against bed bugs is used according to slightly different rules. It is not necessary to clean the room before treating it. The powder can cover dusty surfaces, but this will not reduce the effectiveness of the product. Microparticles penetrate even into small crevices, between the folds of clothing. Moreover, after processing, you can easily clean things from powder.

In addition, there is no need to withstand a certain period after treatment with the substance. Hector does not contribute to the release of volatile substances into the air.

It has a mechanical effect on parasites, and therefore remains on surfaces for a long time without the need to renew the layer of the substance.

In addition, you need to take into account that this product does not contain attractants, but such substances are still not effective in killing bedbugs. The fact is that bloodsuckers feed on blood. They are attracted to components of biological fluids in the human body. Accordingly, it is not advisable to use products that are designed to attract insects (for example, as is the case with special gels). Given this feature, you need to properly treat the room - the powder is scattered where bed parasites can crawl.

This is the main condition, the fulfillment of which ensures almost 100% results.

The powder must be applied to contaminated surfaces.

I will be pleased with the first results within a few days after use.

A REMINDER ON THE CORRECT USE OF HECTOR

Video review of the drug against bed bugs Hector

How does the lethal agent work?

The base of the drug is a highly absorbent light powder.

When in contact with an insect, the powder particles, due to static tension, tightly cling to the waxy cuticle and begin to rapidly absorb the insect's fluid (hemolymph), causing its death from dehydration.

Simply put, the granules suck all the life-giving moisture out of the insect.

And thanks to the unique method of adhesion and the high absorbency of the powder, the insect will inevitably die at the slightest contact.

It takes weeks for highly toxic pesticides to reduce the population of bloodsuckers in an apartment. This happens for the following reason: they do not act on parasites instantly, and the reptiles have time to lay eggs.

Moreover, the new brood may have resistant properties to chemicals, which means repeated treatment will no longer help.

Unlike similar pesticides, GEKTOR powder particles immediately begin to absorb liquid from bloodsuckers, preventing a new generation from leaving behind.

For the same reason, the drug works effectively on both regular and resistant bed bugs, which can withstand a large number of chemicals existing on the Russian market (according to the manufacturer’s statements).

Insecticidal powder "GEKTOR AGAINST BED BUGS" will provide effective protection of your home from bed bugs (regular and resistive), their larvae and eggs, as well as other crawling insects. When in contact with an insect, the super-light GEKTOR powder rapidly sucks out all the moisture from it, which leads to the death of the insect. The unique principle of action does not allow insects to develop immunity to the product.

How to use Hector

"Hector" is one of the effective and safe means

The Hector line of drugs consists of products for crawling insects and bed bugs. This is a specialized broad-spectrum product aimed at killing bedbugs, cockroaches, ants, ticks and fleas.

The poison is available in powder form. Its distinctive feature is that it contains absolutely no elements harmful to humans. Synthetic powder consists of small particles no larger than 5 mm in size. It has excellent absorption capacity and absorbs moisture in large quantities.

It is on this feature that the action of the product is based. As soon as the drug comes into contact with moisture, it begins to quickly draw out the liquid and absorb it. Faced with “Hector,” the bedbugs begin to die from dehydration. The time of death depends on the area of damage to the insect's body. On average, the parasite dies within 24 hours. Death occurs in any case, regardless of which part of the body the bug came into contact with the drug. In the process of dehydration, the insect weakens and loses its reproductive function.

Gektor against bed bugs, unlike chemical preparations with similar effects, acts gently and does not cause addiction to parasites. The active substance of the product is effectively used in medical and household treatments. It does not have a toxic effect on the human body.

Note! Many summer residents use Hector to treat their summer cottages against pests.

Hector against bedbugs can be purchased in two packaging options:

For specialized companies involved in treating premises against parasites, the product is sold in soft containers in 100-1500 g packaging.
Spray bottles up to 300 ml for home use.

When storing the drug, it is very important to maintain tightness. If the package is not tightly closed, the powder will begin to absorb moisture and lose its absorbent properties. Because of this, the effectiveness of the impact will weaken.

Room treatment process

Room treatment

Since hector against bed bugs is completely safe, you can treat it at home yourself. The process consists of several stages:

finding nests;
preparing the premises for disinfection;
drug distribution;
carrying out the necessary actions after processing.

Unlike similar products in the form of aerosols, the powder does not spread into the air. Therefore, it must be precisely placed in insect habitats.

Before you start processing, you need to carefully inspect the room. There are several characteristic signs that will indicate the presence of bedbug nests. These include:

traces in the form of dots on wallpaper, window sills, baseboards;
specific smell;
chitinous shells.

After the inspection, the premises need to be prepared. To do this you will need:

Open access to baseboards, back walls of upholstered furniture, wallpaper joints.
Boil and steam all textiles, including rugs, pillows, blankets, and bed linen.
Upholstered furniture is treated with hot steam.

The room processing process includes the following steps:

the spout of the bottle is cut off;
The product is applied in a thin layer evenly to the areas where parasites live. All wooden elements, carpets, and baseboards must be treated. The drug is distributed at the rate of 2 g per square meter.

Important! Despite the absence of harm from the drug to people, the manufacturer recommends adhering to a number of safety rules:

When processing, you need to wear a respirator or mask.
No food or drinks should be consumed during the process.
Allergy sufferers should use the drug with caution.
There should be no drafts in the room so that the powder does not rise into the air.

Reviews of Gektor against bed bugs indicate that it is almost impossible to get rid of parasites in one go. There are two reasons for this:

the active component of the drug cannot destroy bedbug eggs;
It is very difficult to decompose the powder in such a way as to ensure 100% contact of the poison with the parasite.

Most often it is necessary to re-process.

Advantages and disadvantages of the drug

Safety for people and animals

Gektor against bedbugs has a number of advantages compared to other drugs of similar action:

It does not smell, since there are no oily impurities in the composition.
Absolutely safe, as it contains no toxic chemicals.
Effective impact. If the drug gets on an insect, it will definitely die.
Long-lasting degree of protection.
Possibility to process the premises yourself. There is no need to carry out complex preparation of the apartment.

Despite many positive reviews about Hector against bed bugs, the drug also has disadvantages:

processing must be carried out very carefully, since the effectiveness will depend on the accuracy of application of the powder. To completely destroy parasites, there must be maximum contact with the drug;
There remains a possibility of re-emergence of bedbugs, since the product does not penetrate the eggs, therefore, the larvae survive.

Note! In addition, the powder is dusty, so even a small draft can prevent the product from reaching the bedbugs.

Gektor anti-bed bug product

This is a one-component product and does not contain insecticide. The composition includes silicon dioxide (98%). The drug is produced in polymer bottles with a thin spout. This allows the substance to be delivered not only to flat surfaces, but also to remote areas that are difficult to reach due to the location of furniture, large items or the characteristics of finishing materials.

Active ingredients of Hector preparations

The silicon dioxide contained in the product is also called silica. This is a component that is the main one in the composition of most rocks (diatomaceous earth among them). Interestingly, it is found even in the human body (contained in blood, plasma). The composition of the drug included silica after processing. It is a powdery substance.

Moreover, the size of the fractions of Hector against bedbugs is so small that the particles can linger in the air for a short time. This allows you to process the room more efficiently.

Distinctive features of Gektor. Photos of original packaging

The powder has no odor; therefore, volatile substances are not released into the air and do not cause discomfort. This allows it to be used even by allergy sufferers. The drug is available in different bottles. There is a means to directly kill bedbugs and crawling insects. However, flying pests can also receive a dose of the powder if they land on the treated surface. The product is available in a bottle of 500 ml (100 g). Identification marks:

white container;
black label with colored letters;
black lid with the ability to adjust the size of the hole on the “spout”.

Marina, 45 years old, Veliky Novgorod

I really liked how Hector powder works against bedbugs. It is very easy to use, and there is no smell in the room after treatment.

Galina, 39 years old, Perm

I recently discovered this drug. It costs much more than all similar products, but you can safely and easily clean your apartment from insects, and from all that fall on the treated areas.

No one will know that you had bedbugs

Often, families faced with a bed bug problem have to radically change their lifestyle. They have to forget about their usual routine and devote all their strength and time to fighting a sudden scourge.

By calling the SES, you will have to leave the apartment for an indefinite period, after which you will need to ventilate the apartment for a long time to remove the pungent odor.

Moreover, usually, one treatment is not enough, and you have to call “people in overalls” several times. After each treatment, thorough cleaning is required, because God forbid the remaining toxic substances enter your body.

Aerosols and other bedbug repellents available at the corner store are sometimes dangerous and have a strong smell, making them impossible to use, especially when you have children or pets.

Hector stands out from most existing bedbug control products. The drug will allow you not to disturb your neighbors, not to change your rhythm of life and, most importantly, not to worry about the safety of your loved ones.

Approved for household use

There are many insecticidal products available today, but most of them are approved for use only by licensed insect control services.

Due to the high content of toxic substances. Typically, such products have hazard classes 1 and 2 (extremely dangerous and highly dangerous).

GEKTOR belongs to the 4th hazard class, which is comparable to table salt.

This means: the drug can be safely used in your apartments and houses, without having any special education or experience.

Safety of Hector drugs for people and pets

All Hector drugs, in terms of acute toxicity when ingested in the stomach and on the skin, belong to class 4 hazardous substances, that is, the safest.

On a note
Fenthion, chlorpyrifos, lambda-cyhalothrin, etc., widely used in popular insecticidal preparations, belong to substances of hazard class 2 (hazardous compounds). For comparison: potassium cyanide, in terms of the degree of impact on the human body, is also characterized by hazard class 2.

In relation to humans and pets, Hector powder does not have a toxic effect when inhaled or accidentally swallowed (even if a relatively large amount is swallowed). As noted above, in medicine, preparations based on finely dispersed silicon dioxide are even specifically used internally as enterosorbents. Silicon dioxide is an inert substance, is not absorbed into the blood and is completely excreted unchanged from the body through the intestines.

Hector preparations do not cause allergies either when ingested or when applied to the skin.

On a note
Due to its high safety, silicon dioxide is used as a food additive in food products, added to cosmetics (for example, face creams and scrubs) and to toothpastes.

In other words, the peculiarity of Hector preparations is that they have a detrimental effect on bedbugs (and other insects), leading to rapid dehydration and death, and in warm-blooded animals, perhaps, they can cause some drying effect on the skin.

All the pros and cons of the drug

Despite many rave reviews, you need to buy Hector after studying its features. Advantages of this tool:

no odor;
no toxic components in the composition;
no volatile components are released during processing;
universal action: the drug is used inside and outside objects of various types, and also destroys any insects;
long period of action, during which a high level of effectiveness is maintained;
Parasites do not develop resistance to the substance.

There are also disadvantages. These include high prices. Other disadvantages of using the drug Hector:

not always quick results;
powder consumption is different in each case, and given the high price of the product, this can lead to new costs;
when treating an area, the powder destroys all insects, even beneficial ones;

low efficiency if the target is flying pests, since they do not always land where there is powder;
the product consists of microparticles that easily rise into the air, which means you will have to clean more often;
the powder cannot linger on vertical surfaces.

The product affects the cuticles of pests

Safety class for domestic use

The drug does not harm people or animals. It does not contain toxic components and does not lead to poisoning. This is explained by the fact that Hector belongs to hazard class 4. For comparison, table salt has the same level of “toxicity”. This means that if Hector powder gets into the body, no complications will arise; a person does not risk anything by using it.

Hector kills bedbugs at all stages of development

Including larvae that have just emerged from eggs

Adult bedbugs

Individuals actively feeding and laying eggs

Nymphs of all ages

If a nymph runs where Hector is poured, she will die

First instar larvae

With Hector, it doesn’t matter whether bedbug eggs remain in the room - the larvae that hatch from them will die

Due to its long residual effect, Hector will kill even those bedbugs on which the powder could not be directly applied. If these bugs get out of their hiding places and run across the layer of product, they will die.

Heptral's analogs

Level 4 ATC code matches: Carnitine Chloride Carnitine L-Carnitine Heptral Carnitene Citrulline Gepadif Elkar

Analogues of the drug Heptor are the drugs Heptral and Adenosylmethionine , which have a similar effect on the patient’s body.

Which is better: Heptor or Heptral?

Both Heptor and Heptral are based on a similar active ingredient - ademetionine. Therefore, their effect on metabolism in human liver and brain cells is practically the same. Heptral is sold in the form of tablets, as well as injections for intravenous and intramuscular administration. The main differences are the manufacturer and cost of these drugs. Heptor is a domestically produced drug. Heptral is produced in Italy, so its cost is higher.

Reviews about Heptor

By visiting a specialized forum or website, you can find numerous reviews about Heptor. Patients note the relatively low cost of the drug as an advantage, as well as the ease of use. Reviews from doctors indicate a positive effect after completing a course of treatment with the drug. An improvement in the condition is noted already during the treatment process, but you must definitely adhere to the treatment regimen that was prescribed by the doctor.
